Aloe
Aloes form part of the large Lily family and can be found mainly in Africa, Madagascar and Arabia. Aloes are renowned for their beautiful flowers and can range from quite small to great sizes. The leaves are thickened and grow in a rosette, they also contain an extremely bitter juice that can be used medicinally such as the juice of Aloe ferox.
